Trabant Chai is a lounge in Seattle that had asked Soulseek Records back in May of 2003 to make a compilation for their grand opening. After Soulseek Records success with making a compilation for Cen-Art they decided to give it a try. The style of this compilation is somewhat similar to the Cen-Art release in it's relaxed feel but the focus here was to make music you would hear on a space station. The tracks were selected by Monotremata, one of the owners of the lounge.
